Technical Working Groups

Sexual and Reproductive Health

The Sexual and Reproductive Health Technical Working Group (SRH TWG) was established by the Coalition for Women’s Health in Africa (COWHA) on April 19th, 2023, to address concerning trends and negative outcomes associated with contraception and unintended pregnancies in Africa.

From its establishment, the SRH TWG members have been working on a situational analysis regarding the involvement of the private sector in delivering Sexual and Reproductive Health solutions within Ghana, South Africa, and Kenya. Upon completion, this comprehensive analysis will be documented in a report, which will then be disseminated among health stakeholders to enhance understanding and influence policies within the SRH sector.
